Does anybody else here listen to the Jocko Podcast? I just started listening and really dig what this man has to say about discipline and leadership. I think his principles are very applicable to fitness in general. In fact, because of him, I've been inspired to sign up for an introductory boxing class next semester at school.
Background on Jocko Willink
>20 years in Navy Seals
>served in Iraq
>black belt in BJJ
>author of 3 books
>host of the Jocko Podcast
>co-founder of Echelon Front, a company that helps businesses with leadership challenges
I'm interested in discussing the topics of leadership and discipline with like minded individuals. If you are into these types of things or if you are into the military, I highly recommend checking out his podcast. He has also been featured on the Joe Rogan Experience as well as other podcasts to talk about MMA and BJJ. Side note: does anybody have any advice for somebody looking to get into boxing? At least from a strength training persepective.
If you haven't read "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" I'd definitely recommend that, it's basically how to be a leader the book.
>>41559421
Yes
>>41559455
It's definitely on my list. I have so many books I want to read but I spend so little time actually reading... Maybe that is something that I could work on as part of my disciplinary habits.
Some of the other books concerning these topics:
How to Win Friends and Influence People
Extreme Ownership (Jocko's book)
About Face
Once an Eagle
Here's a link to a list of books that Jocko has talked about on his podcast: http://jockopodcast2.com/jocko-podcast-books/

The Navy's section on core attributes is of particular interest and relevance to this discussion.
>Be at a healthy weight
>Normal BMI
>have a beer gut
How can I fix this? Daily situps and crunches?
>>41559224
stop drinking beer. then you can call your fat stomach something else
>>41559224
fast for 3 days.
>>41559241
I don't think "coke zero gut" has the same ring to it
What does /fit/ put with their oats?
inb4 squats
>wasting time eating oats with a spoon
http://thehealthyfamilyandhome.com/gluten-free-vegan-chocolate-peanut-butter-oatmeal-no-bake-cookies/
I make these once a month, triple recipe yields enough to fill a freezer bag with 22x 80g cookies. It's fucking delicious, not like eating phlegm like OP's pic.
>>41559140
squats
>>41559238
>Margarine
I'm guessing i can just substitute with butter right? Margarine is illegal over here anyway lol
Thanks for the recipe btw, I'm actually gonna try this
>be hugless, kissless, gymcel virgin
>use the power of 1,000 fallen betas to channel my inner Chad
>get a girl's number
>start texting her
>"teehee blablabla so me and my BOYFRIEND blablabla
>her boyfriend is a youtuber with 4 FUCKING MILLIONS SUBS
IT'S NOT FUCKING FAIR
>>41559063
If she has a bf, why is she talking to another guy?
>>41559063
>her boyfriend is a youtuber with 4 FUCKING MILLIONS SUBS
who??
>>41559063
you did absoulutely nothing wrong, since she has a boyfriend; friendzone her and move on. setting your standarts high is a good thing.
Is there anything worse than cutting?
>look deflated
>lifts going to shit
>lacking energy
>stomach grumbling all the time
>can't eat out with friends as often
>>41558593
>look deflated
Creatine fixes this instantly
>lifts going to shit
Preworkout mix and adjust eating to work around workout times
>lacking energy
count calories, understand when to eat and plan accordingly
>stomach grumbling all the time
Drink more water
>can't eat out with friends as often
Plan diet for that day around eating out, eat smaller portions, and keep in mind what you eat when out
Not hard if you use your brain
your diet is just shit. Learn to feed yourself, mongoloid
>>41558593
yeah my dude permabulk all the way
Successes
>drinking water now, 2 liters or more a day on average
>3 weeks into running regimen
>avoiding greasy food
>normal sleeping schedule now
>walking more instead of driving car
To do list
>cook my own food, fresh
>lift weights at gym (need to get membership)
>have better self control
Regrettably, after an exhausting 10 hour EMS shift I went to burger King at 2 in the morning and stress ate like 3000 call. Oops
3rd day of cutting already seeing more definition
>tfw no gf
Is keeping me going. Maybe at 7% body fat I'll get my gf. It has to be
>drink water all the time, why do fat normies think this is an achievement
>ride bike 20 miles a day
>eat what I want because I do cardio everyday and lift 4 times a week, CICO bitch.
>sleep when I get to drunk or high to stand up straight
>never owned a cuck mobile and get to save so much money
>have gf who drives me around
>eat McDonald's and cupcakes while cutting, still lose weight
I'm a Chad...oh well. Life is bretty gud.

Pic related it's what I'm into right now.
dg is god tier for working out
sabaton too
>>41557384
Depends on my training. If im lifting anything 90% 1RM or above slayer is usually go to.

So how's that beach body coming along? I hope you started your cut... right?
No beach where I live.
Is this a party for people with down syndrome? Why are they all so weird?
>>41557214
Normies among themselves.
Will lifting help someone become Übermensch?
>>41557069
Nope
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTQSBm5A_FI
>>41557083
fucking anime faggot. Come to reality.
>>41557069
If you have to ask, you are already Untermensch.
When would a girl know if she's getting 'mired?
Men are always generally nice to women just in a gentlemanly way, but what would you do if you were 'mirin a girl?
I usually stare at her and keep my distance.
If a woman is conventionally attractive, any hint of a glance is considered miring. If she's conventionally unattractive, any hint of a glance is considered awkward and rude.
>>41556922
like sexually or gains wise
>sexual is hit on or maybe general staring at sexy parts
>gains is staring at gainy parts or impressed by reps
Are keto dieters (FOR HEALTH) the most deluded orthorexics?
Listen, I've done keto in the past. It stripped bodyfat from me like a round of chemotherapy - but that's exactly what it felt like. 5 weeks in, still having to regularly dose potassium and sodium or suffer immediate electrolyte imbalance headaches and heart palpitations (while eating organic salmon/avocado/cold press oil), I said "fuck it".
I know this diet works for people bodyfat-wise, but it terrifies me that some people think this is heart-healthy. The comments around the internet (particularly Reddit, apologies) are reaching levels of autism I didn't think possible:
"My aunt offered me an apple and some brown rice and I said: 'NO THANKS IDIOT, I care about my health!' before tucking into my 12 slices of bacon-wrapped butter.
WHEN WILL NORMIES LEARN? ^_^"
Cue 20 years in the future when xXx_ketobunny_xXx is having triple bypass surgery.

>>41556895
Yes they are.
Ex fatties who conflate weight loss with health like they are one and the same.
Ya the goal of a diet like keto should be to lose the weight fast and get done asap. It is not healthy long term if you dont have food allergies.
>>41556895
while eating organic salmon/avocado/cold press oil), I said "fuck it"
Instead of eating eggs and bacon and nuts, you went on a total meme diet and then blame the concept of eating high-fat high-protein low-fat.
Like what the living fuck? Eat some eggs and bacon you fucking idiot.
And get some coconut oil jesus fucking christ you're a disaster.

Post MFP graphs
Past 90 days out of 102 days in for me.
Could any of you share your daily meal plan? I'm curious and looking for some easily made healthy meals to make
thanks lads
>>41556898
Don't have a graph but I started roughly around the same time as you (February 26th) and nearly the same weight (315 lbs starting, down to 280 as of today). Good shit brother.
Never had any issue with flying with powders and pills over the past few years but had both taken at security a couple of weeks ago.
How do you guys fly with sketchy looking supps like pic related and how do you pack them so they don't get taken?
I always put my supplements in a condom, swallow it, and shit them out in a day
omg guys I cant stay a day without my overpriced animal pack pills what do i do :((
>>41556816
Carry-on luggage.
>>41558401

>>41555936
He likely has started, and good on him honestly.
Why do you keep coming back to 4chan?
>>41555607
i have nothing else to do besides studying and lifting. such is life of a friendless kissless handholdless virgin
>>41555607
Being anon is fun.

Good community, if you see past the >tfw no gf and /pol/ types then most people here are pretty nice. Certainly nicer than Redditors, who just shit on you for having a different opinion. Some boards on here are just pure shit though and I avoid them, like /r9k/.
